6/14/2022 2:10:00 PM | General
The United States Air Force Academy had 12 programs that achieved a multiyear NCAA Division I Academic Progress Rate (APR) score of 990 or higher. Data is for the 2017-18, 2018-19, 2019-20, and 2020-21 academic years.
The Air Force teams honored are women's gymnastics (1,000), women's volleyball (1,000), baseball (998), women's soccer (998), men's cross country (994), men's ice hockey (994), football (994), rifle (994), men's track and field (992), men's gymnastics (991), men's lacrosse (991) and women's swimming and diving (990).
Each academic year, every Division I sports team across the country calculates its APR using a simple and consistent formula. Each term, scholarship student-athletes can earn 1 point for remaining eligible and 1 point for staying in school or graduating. For schools that do not offer scholarships, recruited student-athletes on the varsity roster are tracked. The Academic Performance Program has established an essential framework for academic excellence. The program provides measurable goals to ensure schools are fulfilling their commitment of equipping student-athletes with the tools and resources necessary to achieve academic success.
A full list of APRs for each team can be accessed by using the APR searchable database.
